I have a long list of customers. Each of them have a unique pricing formula
associated with their account. On my "Tab1," I have written formulas to
return the right commission by customer for each transaction my company is
party to. (I wrote the formulas to calculate based on a plug value in column
"c". The pricing formulas are each "IF" or "LOOKUP" formulas.)

I have a second tab ("Tab2") that is a long list of thousands of
transactions. (The value of each transaction is also located in column "c").
I wrote a VLOOKUP to refer to the customer commission formulas on Tab1. The
vlookup successfully returns the VALUE in "Tab1"... but I am hoping to write
it in such a way that it returns the FORMULA. That way, I can actually
calculate the company commission by transaction by customer. (Right now,
with my vlookup returning the VALUE instead of returning the FORMULA, my data
calculations are worthless and based on the plug values in column "c" of
"Tab1".)

Any thoughts? Is there a better way to achieve this task? Thanks in
advance.
